Looks like a lot of the hard work is done for a pretty serious car. Love the full length sunroof too (although might give the car some structural issues, meh, i'm sure the space frame has taken care of that!)

Haha, fair enough then :lol:

Still, if you want a genuine x-pack for a couple of hundred quid...

Why would anyone who`s gonna drag race a car, choose a car with 3/4 of its roof missing anyway? There has to be a story behind why they chose that route?!

Beside all that....
How nice if they kept the front the way it is.. and maybe black mesh with lights behind it..
It looks very charger like!

Shame about chopping up a xpack.
The Darwin effect normally takes care of these sorts of people before they have a chance to own a car.

There is no such thing as a factory Mk 3 X Pack, although a handfull of Mk 3 X Packs done by the dealers survivied. If this is one of them then whoever did this to it needs to be shot!!

On the plus side this must increase the value of my X Pack!
